Question Rough Country 1.75"

Does anyone have any pictures of this lift with 33"s? I am trying to decide between this and a 2.5". I am thinking mostly of the ease of getting in for my short legged wife and kids. I didn't find anything in the search.
Thanks in advance.

when it comes to lifts, I don't think 3/4 of an inch is much, so I say just go for the 2.5.

Also, you can always upgrade to 35" tires (if you feel the need to) down the line with the 2.5" set-up...

Here's a pic of my JK running 33's with a 1" Body lift

Here is a pic of my jeep with a 1.75 lift installed on the front and a .75 lift installed on the rear.

I would go with a 2.5! Will give you give you a prevent rub, and also if you decide you want 35's you can bump up!

Yeah, i wish I had gone with the 2.5" with shock extensions when I got my 1.75". I was worried there would be more involved with the 2.5", and went with the 1.75" to sort of take the easy way out. So, instead I bought some 3/4" spacers and shock extensions to add to the front to make it 2.5"...but the rear is still 1.75". The end result is the same, but I would have saved money buying the 2.5" in the first place because I wound up spending about $210 for what would have cost $139 had I have gotten the RC 2.5" with shock extensions.
